Answer 1

Android does not support CSS in TextView and has a limited Html markup support. Use WebView instead.

Answer 2

Android native TextView doesn't support all HTML tags and features. It only does support a few tags and properties. So, in your case, there's a couple of options which you may want to consider.

Use WebView to show rich texts. However, WebViews are too heavy and slow.

Use 3rd party libraries that improve native TextView and support more HTML tags. For example: HTML-TextView.
